I haven't used the BWBM for chopping because I already know I'm not keeping it because it does not fit my hand well. The palm swell "hump" is not comfortable for me. I really love the FSH handle w/o magnums and am trying to trade one of the BWBMs for a mistress w/o magnums and with a flat handle. The orange/black G10 BWBM was going to be a grail knife for me but as much as I love it, I just know it doesn't fit my hand. I thought about smoothing the G10 but I don't think the width is the problem, I think its the shape of the raised hump. I don't want to risk modifying it just to have it still not fit.

I have compared the FSH and DF and the performance was closer than I expected.
